Chapter 1169: Battle of Shule (3)(1/2)
Late at night, Li Ling stood in front of the oil lamp and looked at the letter in his hand.
Xin was a Han scout who shot the Outu cavalry sent by him with arrows.
The writer of the letter was Chang Hui. After reading it, Li Ling was indeed Chang Hui's handwriting.
But the content has kept him wandering to this day.
"I have a son who has left me in the world?" Li Ling frowned, and his heart was difficult to calm down.
Looking at the dim light, he couldn't help but think of his mother, wife, children, brothers, and fathers and grandparents.
The glory and honor of the Li family in Longyou seemed to be reappearing in his face.
Two generals in one family, all the grandparents and grandchildren are famous generals!
Since his grandfather Li Guang and Li Cai brothers, the leader of the Longyou General Sect was Cheng Ji Li family, and the most famous Cheng Ji Li family was the Fei General Li Guang.
When he had memory, what he saw and heard was the respect and support of the elders of the township party.
No matter who it is, whenever he sees him, he will say, "That is the legitimate grandson of General Fei, where is our Longyou people's hope!"
Therefore, he has carried the hopes of the entire Li family and even the Longyou general family since he was a child.
And he did not disappoint the hopes of the village party and clan.
At the age of fifteen, he was elected as the emperor Yulin Guard, and at the age of eighteen, he was appointed as the chief of the military commander Jianzhang Palace Supervisor, becoming the minister of the guards around the emperor.
So at the age of twenty, he led 800 light cavalry into the hinterland of the Huns for thousands of miles and returned, shocking the world!
So he was appointed as the cavalry commander. The emperor personally appointed the prime minister and the Shaofu, from Jiangxia and Xiapi to select 5,000 good sons for him, and handed them over to him for training.
At that time, everyone in the world was praising him.
At that time, almost everyone felt that he would be able to inherit and carry forward the great cause of his father and ancestors in the future as the leader of the Han military!
pity……
In the battle of Junji Mountain, the army was destroyed and five thousand Jiangxia Jian's soldiers buried their bones in the mountains.
Subsequently, his clan, including his mother who raised him and educated him, as well as his childhood sweethearts, his children, wives, concubines, and even his retainers, were all killed by the Han Dynasty.
Li Ling will always remember that when the news of the clan's execution reached his ears, he cried heartbrokenly for three days and three nights until he fainted.
When he woke up, he lifted his sword and killed the surrendered general Li Xu, who was said to be misrepresented, with one knife.
In the next ten years, although he had remarried his wife and had children.
However, he often dreamed of the hometown of Cheng Ji’s hometown, dreamed of his mother’s love wife, and dreamed of peach trees and plum trees at the entrance of Chang’an’s former residence.
"Is this why adults often meet me in my dreams?" Li Ling couldn't help but think.
For him, this is the only reasonable explanation.
He has children left in Chang'an!
Therefore, the old mother and beloved wife frequently appear in his dreams.
Only then did he frequently dream about his hometown and his former residence in Chang'an.
only……
Holding the letter, Li Ling couldn't help but doubt it.
"Can Chang Hui be deceiving me?" After thinking about it, he laughed: "It's not that gentleman Chang Hui would take such a villain's path?"
Chang Hui and Su Wu were detained by the Marquis of Qieqi, and they were extremely humiliated and tortured, but they never lost their ambitions. Not to mention him, even the Huns admired him very much.
How could such a person do villain?
Besides, what is the meaning of his doing this?
Do you simply want to disturb his thinking?
Li Ling shook his head.
so……
"I have children left in Chang'an..." Li Ling was excited: "I and my wife have a future!"
Unfilial piety is the greatest thing!
Although, now he has married and had children in the Huns.
But it was born in the Huns and was born with the Huns' women, so they were not qualified to inherit the family career.
The only one who can replace him and inherit the glory of his father and grandfather’s father and grandfather’s family is that child!
That posthumous son who is just like him!
Thinking of this, Li Ling couldn't help crying.
Because he thought of himself.
He is also a posthumous son!
His father, Li Danghu, died prematurely due to illness before he was born. He was raised by his mother.
And now...
That poor child, but not even his mother.
As soon as you are born, you are lonely and may not even know who your parents are.
Maybe, you will be bullied.
Maybe, they will be ridiculed.
Maybe someone will be pointed at the back and scolded.
"My son! My son! My poor son..." Li Ling sobbed in a low voice, and squatted down with his head in his arms.
After a moment, he wiped away his tears and stood up again.
He looked firm and looked solemn. He held the letter in his hand and sweared to himself: "This battle will not be defeated!"
"I must repel the Han army!"
Yes!
He has to do this, and he has to do this!
Because, he must make himself more qualified, more capable and more important!
Otherwise, Liu from the Han Dynasty would not have looked at him in front of him.
It is unique to make one's performance important, making oneself more important and even threatening.
The emperor of the Han Dynasty and the Liu family dare not hurt his son.
Li Ling had already understood the fact that the clan was killed.
In this world, the strong prey on the weak.
Always stealing the hook and killing the marquis who steal the country!
Therefore, Li Ling knew that if he was defeated in this battle, his value and weight would plummet in Chang'an's eyes.
Once the Emperor of Chang'an knew that he had a posthumous son alive, he probably wouldn't take care of him.
Only in this battle can we defeat the General Yang of Eagle.
Only the emperor of Chang'an would treat him in a straight face.
Only then did he know his son, he would not dare to hurt him, and he might even treat and take care of him as a state guest.
But……
How can we achieve our goal?
Li Ling picked up the oil lamp and walked to the stadium hanging in the tent.
This is the map of Shule Kingdom he had just drawn. The entire Shule and the place hundreds of miles are visible in his eyes.
Looking at the map, his brows frowned because he knew that he had to choose a battlefield.
A battlefield that is beneficial to him and not to the Han army.
However, Shule is so big that it is extremely difficult to find a suitable place.
Because the Shule Kingdom is flat all the way and there are almost no hills. For the cavalry, this is the most suitable battlefield.
When the war started here, Li Ling could even close his eyes and imagine what would the weak servants under his command be played with by the Han cavalry?
so……
Regular combat is definitely not possible!
That's asking for death!
His huge army will be fully utilized by the Han cavalry, and his elite troops will be exhausted!
Thinking of this, Li Ling's eyes suddenly burst out with splendor.
"Come here! Get me a pen and ink!" Li Ling shouted.
To be continued...
